Synopsis: [The Film Daily, 30 April 1922, page ?] A man and his horse ride into the peaceful hamlet of a western valley. The town gambler coaxes the master of the horse into a little game of poker which he wins by helping himself to the aces concealed in his boot. Sally, the clever horse, sees this from the window and brings some choice cards to his master’s hand. This starts the fight which would certainly have ended badly for the stranger had not his horse Sally entered the saloon and cleaned out the entire gang of roughnecks.
